”Grief is an inevitable part of being human because suffering comes along with being alive; therefore, striving towards understanding how it works can help us better manage its intensity and ultimately lead us closer towards reclaiming some sense of joy within our lives again too, though many don’t know where they should begin while attempting this work after experiencing profound hardship within their lives – especially if they lack proper guidance in terms of professional support either through therapy or any other form of assistance – which makes tending one’s psychological wounds all the much harder still…
Therefore, what I would suggest firstly (and most importantly) here is creating yourself an emotionally safe environment before beginning to actually work through your particular grief experience itself: cultivate around yourself people who are both kind and compassionate as well as willing to listen without judgement whenever needed; make sure there’s enough room left inside of them to offer you solace and attention during particularly difficult moments too, if need be… Then, secondly, ask honest questions about why exactly you’re feeling the way you do presently: What has happened to cause me to feel this way? What am I afraid might happen next? Am I trying to fix something else instead of this issue? Are the points I’m making to myself valid ones based upon facts and evidence rather than just my own distorted perceptions of things in the moment amidst a heightened emotional state…? Asking oneself these kinds of questions regularly throughout the course of the grieving period allows a person to view the situation differently, thereby enabling them to become aware of hidden connections between the past and present and thus helping them to heal more quickly and efficiently than possible…
Thirdly, set realistic goals and assess progress at each step you’re taking in order to keep progressing forward steadily, at the same time staying mindful of your own limitations and boundaries – remember that healing doesn’t always occur overnight, so take patience and commitment if those who truly wish to move beyond pain, sadness and heartache successfully must be prepared to accept the fact that learning to cope with their feelings won’t be an instantaneous process – and requires that they give themselves permission to take breaks and restfully step away from their emotions whenever they become overwhelming at times – so the above-listed tips are essential in utilizing them wisely to build a strong base and foundation for recovery and success; however, this list is by no means exhaustive, whatever your current method of choosing to deal with and deal with your grief feels right is only then knowing it will work by using the resources available, and remain dedicated to your journey ahead which will eventually bring a healthier and happier version of yourself in the long run…”
